...Apparently television executives are getting ideas from LJ RP now. "Persons Unknown" is a total jamjar. I missed the first episode, but I'm watching the second, and I'm a little blown away by all the similarities.
People wake up in an empty town, with cameras watching them everywhere. Food is provided, along with... some spooky people who're running the hotel, or something? When they break parts of their rooms or whatever, it seems to get repaired as if nothing happened. The kidnapees all seem to have some sort of implant put in their leg to put people to sleep if they're acting wrong, or something, though at the beginning of this episode we see 'em digging in with a knife to get the things out. When they try to run out of the town with the implants gone, they run into an invisible barrier. People keep getting little messages, presumably from their captors, in the shape of fortune cookie messages. The main chick is getting ones to kill one of the other guys.
So on and so forth. I'm not sure I would care if it weren't so... DC 2.0.
EDIT: Hahaha they managed to drive out of town, before engulfed by a blinding light and finding themselves driving back in THEY ARE STEALING FROM LJRP IT'S OFFICIAL
